Making Magic in Elizabethan England

Editions of two English magic books of the later sixteenth century, the 'Antiphoner Notebook' and the 'Boxgrove Manual', compiled by practitioners for their own use. They contain conjurations, treasure-hunting operations, charms, image magic and prayers drawn from the Solomonic and necromantic traditions. Klaassen's introduction explains how such books were assembled, what they reveal about their makers, and how vernacular magic differed from the Latin grimoires. A Magic in History sourcebook.
